I'm giving some serious thought to changing my 52 level Paladin from polearm to two handed weapon...probably a maul, possibly a claidh. She can't swing a lance in under 7 seconds. My first though is whether she could even swing one in a decent rt. She's human, but with dexterity and agility in the high 90's. She's bonded to a jeddart axe now and also on occasion uses a naginata. I'm wondering if switching to a two handed weapon would a) free up some training points b) be potentially more damaging if I found the right weapon and c) whether it's worth it to use the upcoming fix skills to make the switch. Anyone out there have any thoughts? I'm just mulling things over a bit.

>> I say go for it with a perfect maul.<<
Note that perfect mauls are rare, since the glyphs for those were restricted in number. A mattock is almost as good; or you could just get a high enchant regular maul and forget the +3 AvD and 6% DF increase. Or look for a superior forged weapon, which is almost as good as perfect but tends to run a lot cheaper.
"So, what does that green line on the graph represent?"
"Oh, that's the projection of a hypothetical offspring from a union between Sauron and Cruella de Ville; we use that as a baseline for determining character alignment."

The last time (maybe even two) they sold they were unrestricted. I think I bought 10 or so, and I know plenty of people that bought that number if not more.
They still command a fairly higher price, but rarity shouldn't be an issue.

Whoa! I guess I was thinking of the first time maul glyphs were released. Hmm, when did they become unrestricted?

Ironwrights shop at EG has had maul, lance, rapier and tiger-claw glyphs for the last two years. They aren't at all cheap (a set of lance or maul glyphs will run you 600k). The upside is that mauls are quick to forge and lances use the same amount of metal as a dagger.
